120 Wood Street, Kitchener

Nestled in the heart of Uptown Waterloo, this classic brick century home sits proudly on a rare extra-wide lot along a tree-lined street where neighbours still wave from their porches, making its debut on the market for the first time in over 50 years, this residence offers timeless charm paired with thoughtful updates. A large, welcoming front porch sets the tone, inviting you inside to discover a home filled with light, warmth, and character. Inside, a bright foyer with an open staircase and original wood banister leads to generous principal rooms and spacious bedrooms that reflect the craftsmanship of a bygone era, while hardwood flooring runs through much of the main level and classic trim and moldings remain throughout. The living/dining area features a decorative fireplace with a mantel and built-in shelving, a large picture window that floods the room with natural light, and a comfortable flow for everyday living and entertaining. Upgrades to the kitchen and dining area add modern convenience — the kitchen offers warm wood cabinetry and abundant storage and workspace — complete with patio doors leading to the outdoor deck. Step outside to your own backyard retreat: a large deck with a durable rubber-membrane surface wraps entirely around the pool, creating the perfect setting for summer gatherings; the adjacent covered section of deck (with a translucent roof/awning and privacy screen) houses an outdoor dining set and barbecue area for year-round enjoyment. A covered carport keeps your vehicle safe from rain and snow, while mature trees and privacy hedging frame the property in natural beauty year-round. Over the years, the home has seen many important updates, including shingles, windows, pool liner, carport, front porch, and furnace, preserving its integrity while leaving room for you to add your personal touch. A fully finished basement extends the living space, offering flexibility for family, hobbies, or guests, and the main level also includes a versatile den/office or extra bedroom space with a closet and curtain divider for added privacy. From the large master bedroom to the classic details throughout, this is a home that has been loved and cared for, and now awaits its next chapter. No guesswork here, just a home that’s right-priced for you to fall in love with. Best of all, you’ll find yourself mere steps from Belmont Village, where modern vibrancy blends with local history, offering delightful dining, specialty shops, festivals, and a genuine sense of community where life is celebrated and possibilities abound.
